"It's okay if you don't talk about this, but it gives me a headache when you talk about it!"
"This group of rebels has really gone crazy recently. Where can they go? They have to come to our Sanhe County."
"You're not leaving yet!"
"And the refugees all came here in droves."
"Keep me busy all day!"
"If this is something, I really can't sleep or eat!"
"Shopkeeper, don't just stand around. Sit down and eat something together."
When the county magistrate heard this, he let out a long sigh.
He put the wine bottle down and asked Zhang Bao to sit down.
While the county magistrate was talking, his cheeks were trembling constantly, and the corners of his mouth were covered with sesame paste.
Zhang Bao looked at the county magistrate and covered his mouth and wanted to laugh.
He quickly pinched his thigh to stop himself from laughing.
This county magistrate has no airs at all.
Rather, he is somewhat peaceful and approachable.
It's hard to imagine how he felt when he picked up the gavel and slapped it.
"Isn't this strange?"
"Aren't the rebels in the military camp all in charge?"
"How come this job still falls on you, the county magistrate?"
Zhang Bao gave the county magistrate a glass of wine.
The county magistrate picked it up and drank it.
He picked up another piece of snake meat and stuffed it into his mouth without caring about burning it.
It was so hot that I smacked my tongue and swallowed it whole.
Zhang Bao looked at it and quickly added another cup, and the county magistrate drank another gulp.
Already a bit drunk and hazy.
"The military camp is in charge!"
"That military lord named Ma doesn't listen to my orders at all!"
"He also treats my office worker No. 10 like a grandson all day long."
The county magistrate was obviously a little drunk.
He didn't even think of Zhang Bao across from him as a confidant, so he started to complain.
Among the current county offices in Daxia.
The county magistrate is at the top.
Below are the county captain and county magistrate.
Affairs in the county are divided into civil and military affairs.
The county lieutenant is responsible for military affairs, public security, and catching thieves, while the county magistrate is responsible for clerical affairs, copying notices, and writing documents.
only.
A small county like Sanhe County.
The county magistrate is the boss.
They are in charge of everything, and the division of labor among the people below is not so clear.
Of course, there aren’t that many things to do.
There is no county magistrate in Sanhe County, only one registrar left over from the previous county magistrate.
The county captain was even more sick. It was said that he was seriously ill and had to be helped to walk, let alone work.
A group of government officials were very disorganized.
But it has been miserable recently.
Chen Dadao and County Sheriff Chen suddenly came to their Sanhe County for some unknown reason.
Thousands of troops were also mobilized.
Just as the county magistrate was preparing to entertain, Sheriff Chen quickly led a group of people out of the city.
The destination is unknown.
But one military lord and 500 troops were left behind.
Assist Sanhe County in resisting the rebels.
But this Ma Junhou is a cold-faced person.
The county magistrate held a banquet to entertain me, but looked cold throughout the whole process.
What's more, they want to take over a group of government servants from the hands of the county magistrate.
How can the county magistrate agree?
They refused on the grounds of maintaining public order.
But this Ma Junhou will either need a training ground today, or he will need weapons and food tomorrow.
A while ago there was talk about strengthening the city wall.
Let them and a bunch of yamen servants help.
The county magistrate thought, since he is also a county guard, it is not easy to offend him.
He relaxed.
This guy is good.
I was busy for seven or eight days and almost exhausted a bunch of government officials to death.
The county magistrate felt that he was very angry.
I am very dissatisfied with this Ma Junhou.
When I heard Zhang Bao talking about it, I naturally complained a lot.
"Forehead……"
Zhang Baozheng didn't know how to answer the call, and there was a burst of noise from below.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man hurriedly walked up, holding his skirt.
Zhang Bao stood up quickly.
Look at the person coming.
The person who came was just standing, with a slender figure and a thin beard.
Dressed like a scholar.
This person is none other than the chief registrar of the county government, Huang Chenzhi.
"master!"
"That Ma Junhou is angry in the Yamen again. Go back and take a look!"
The chief clerk had no time to take care of Zhang Bao and went straight to the county magistrate.
The county magistrate slapped the table in confusion.
"That's too much!"
"Why are you angry again?!"
The county magistrate was very dissatisfied and kicked the bed.
Unexpectedly, the county magistrate's weight was so great that the fire bed was already crumbling.
After such a kick, the place where the county magistrate sat collapsed.
The county magistrate fell directly into it.
Fortunately, the fire pit was not very high, and the charcoal fire inside had been extinguished long ago, so he didn't fall out.
Zhang Bao and the chief clerk spent a lot of effort to pull the county magistrate up.
"It's a matter of weapons in the treasury."
"Anyway, master, you'd better go and have a look!"
The chief clerk helped the county magistrate downstairs and whispered in the county magistrate's ear.
Zhang Bao looked at the county magistrate who was staggering downstairs and shook his head helplessly.
Although Zhang Bao doesn't know what the specific situation is.
But go back as the county magistrate.
It is estimated that Ma Junhou will be even more angry.
Logically speaking, the chief registrar should not understand this situation. Why did he keep asking the county magistrate to go back?
Zhang Bao came to the fire bed and looked at it. It was obvious that he was exhausted.
It seems that this fire kang still needs to be improved...
Just walked downstairs.
He saw Su Xiaoyue coming up to her with a smile.
"What's wrong with this?"
"Look how happy you are!"
Zhang Bao scratched Su Xiaoyue's nose.
"My lord, look!"
"This was thrown away in a hurry when the county magistrate left."
As Su Xiaoyue said this, she took out a large amount of silver ingots, which amounted to four or five taels.
"Did the county magistrate return the money?"
"It's really rare."
Zhang Bao was also a little surprised. He originally planned to feed the dogs, but he didn't expect to receive money. This county magistrate is really interesting.
"Leaving?"
At this time, Lao He also sneakily poked his head out from behind.
"Let's go!"
"Listen, the government officials have been very busy recently, taking care of the affairs of the rebels."
"I guess you have almost forgotten what happened before, so you don't need to be so suspicious."
Zhang Bao said with a smile.
"Hi!"
"I don't care about anything no matter how big it is. Wasn't it because I was afraid that you wouldn't dare to handle those snakes?"
Lao He scratched his neck and said with a nonchalant expression.
Zhang Bao rolled his eyes.
"After Lao Niu comes back later, I will ask him to repair the fire kang upstairs. It collapsed when the county magistrate sat on it. There is also a staircase. I feel it is necessary to strengthen it."
Zhang Bao said to Lao He.
"I'm going out for a while."
Zhang Bao said and walked out.
I heard the county magistrate talking about the refugees before, but Zhang Bao didn't go out in the past few days, so he wanted to go out and see the recent situation in the county.
If there really are too many refugees.
What they can do now is to set up a porridge restaurant for a while.
Zhang Bao is not very kind-hearted.
It’s just that if the refugees are not controlled well, they may be refugees or mobs.
If they break out into riots, the places where they open restaurants will be the first to bear the brunt.
In this day and age, who doesn’t live for a bite to eat?
